news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-27 05:10:14

In late August 2025, I submitted two security reports to PureVPN under their VDP. Three weeks later, I’ve received no response, so I decided to publish the findings to inform other users. The issues affect both their GUI (v2.10.0) and CLI (v2.0.1) clients on Linux (tested on Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS, kernel 6.8.0, iptables-nft backend). Here’s what I found. 1.

Denmark close to wiping out cancer-causing HPV strains after vaccine roll-out

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-28 00:12:29

Denmark has effectively eliminated infections with the two biggest cancer-causing strains of human papillomavirus (HPV) since the vaccine was introduced in 2008, data suggests. The research, published in Eurosurveillance, could have implications for how vaccinated populations are screened in the coming years – particularly as people increasingly receive vaccines that protect against multiple high-risk types of HPV virus. Before vaccination, the prevalence of HPV16/18 was between 15 and 17%, wh

Randomly selecting points inside a triangle

If you have a triangle with vertices A, B, and C, how would you generate random points inside the triangle ABC? Barycentric coordinates One idea would be to use barycentric coordinates. Generate random numbers α, β, and γ from the interval [0, 1]. Normalize the points to have sum 1 by dividing each by their sum. Return αA + βB + γC. This generates points inside the triangle, but not uniformly. Accept-reject Another idea is to use an accept-reject method. Draw a rectangle around the triangl
